Chapter 428: The Quirk Evolution and Odd Hints
—
From the beginning, all the Chief Gods more or less knew that something had happened with the God of the Bible for him to not make an appearance for centuries. Most thought he was in a coma, in seclusion training, or in some kind of sealed state.
Now, they knew the truth. That God had actually died. But they learned it too late to take advantage of it as a new God had appeared and inherited the Big G's legacy overnight.
The pantheons around the world were outraged and busy with the recent turmoil caused by the return of the all-new Biblical God, now going by the alias Admin.
"What the hell is he doing?!" Was the main question of the Gods.
There was a peace treaty between Pantheons to not actively meddle in the mortal world, to not actively show themselves in the mortal world. But this — this was beyond a God simply showing his face, he had revealed all of the divinity and was claiming the followers for himself. His old followers were under him, from the three Abrahamic religions, but the problem was that even atheists and some followers of other Gods were converting to him.
Naturally, the pantheons had no choice but to reveal themselves to the world too. The Greek Gods, Norse Gods, Shinto Gods, Egyptian Gods, Hindu Gods, Aztec Gods, and many more.
In particular, the Hindu Pantheon grew explosively thanks to the majority of the 1.5 billion Indians following this religion.
Then there were the Greek Gods; Olympus was a powerful pantheon from the get-go thanks to its famous stories, but they were growing ever so more popular and stronger. The other major pantheons were not much behind.
Old wounds reopened, and old revenge caught new fire; some smaller pantheons waged war now that the agreed-upon rules were less problematic than ever. Gods fought and mortals died in their clash.
Earth wasn't a large planet on its own, but it had thousands of dimensions attached to it. Most of the wars and fights happened within those separate spaces, but some of the Gods came out to the mortal world to clash fists. Their fists collided, and towns vanished overnight.
In just a week, the Planet Earth was not peaceful anymore. Gods meddled with human nations, and a new world war began.
World War III was in full swing, nukes dropped, Gods intervened, and Gods fought.
Every Major God was frustrated, angry, and spiteful towards Neji. Chief Gods searched for him, Zeus and Quetzalcoatl wanted to crush his head, but he was nowhere to be seen.
Because Neji was in secluded training.

The room was luxurious and spacious, fitted out with traditional Japanese furniture and décor but with a Western twist. The walls were painted a light and airy shade of blue, and the floor was covered with tatami mats. In the center of the room stood Neji, tall and muscular as always, his eyes were seemingly open, but his entire eyes were white, just like his hair.
Around him, Japanese tea sets were scattered across a traditional tea table, adding to the tranquil atmosphere of the room. Tranquil just like him. If someone were to spend hours observing him, they would notice Neji wouldn't move a single muscle, as if he wasn't even conscious. He was wearing his full golden armor, just in case he had to come out of his trance and fight.
"Hm," finally his eyes lost their daze, and his blue pupils returned. "Finally done."
Gods' memories were long but useful. So he had decided to go through every detail to learn about every necessary information, and also every way he could use his power. Finally, after a week, he finished assimilating the memories. [Gamer's Mind] helped him not catch any feelings from the memories, which was appreciated.
